Hey there, I am new. Could anyone tell me  how to
turn off the pop up that tells you that a virus or
malware has been blocked ? The red one in the lower
right hand corner.

Thank you,

Nathan

There's no red antivirus popup in SMF my friend

Actually he's talking about Kaspersky Notifications: http://i.imgur.com/DSgpx.png

Not sure, but I think whenever he opens his forum, Kaspersky Malware notification pops-up. Chances are high, his forum is infected with malware :(

He's confusing Kaspersky Notifications as Notifications from SMF

P.S: I used Eicar anti-virus test file for taking the screenshot, It's perfectly safe :)

Welcome to SMF, nathanramsey.

It sounds as though your antivirus software thinks there is a problem with something on the SMF forum you were viewing when you saw the warning.  Either the site is infected with malware, or the antivirus software is very much mistaken.

At this point, I cannot see any evidence of problems with SMF itself.
I would like to move this to an appropriate support board, where people who have seen this problem before can help you fix that part of your forum.

* Is this SMF forum you are administering?
* What version of SMF is it running?

Thank You
